Another iconic venue in the heart of Bath… ✨

The Guildhall is a truly special space where history, architecture and modern events come together.

At its centre is the magnificent Banqueting Room — one of the finest Georgian interiors in the region, first used for civic events in 1775 and still hosting celebrations, performances and gatherings today.

From elegant dinners and lively parties to concerts, festivals and filming, the Guildhall offers a versatile setting for a wide range of events. With capacity for up to 300 guests and the unique option to choose your own caterer, it’s a venue that combines grandeur with flexibility.

Did you know? 👀
The Guildhall was designed as Bath’s answer to the Assembly Rooms, with impressive chandeliers, detailed plasterwork and a musicians’ gallery — and today it even features in productions like Bridgerton.

Whether you’re planning something large or more intimate, this is a venue that brings atmosphere and history to every occasion.

Kicking off our venue spotlight series with something truly special… ✨

Welcome to The Roman Baths & Pump Room — where 2,000 years of history creates an unforgettable setting for modern events.

From the atmospheric Great Bath, with steam rising as evening falls, to the elegant Georgian Pump Room, this is a space that transforms every occasion into something extraordinary.

Perfect for so much more than you might expect:
• Parties and celebrations 🎉
• Private dinners and receptions 🍽️
• Concerts and performances 🎶
• Filming and photography 🎬

Imagine sipping drinks beside the Great Bath, hosting a candlelit dinner in the Pump Room, or welcoming guests into a venue that has been drawing people together for centuries…

Did you know? 👀
The thermal water in the Roman Baths fell as rain on the Mendip Hills thousands of years ago before travelling deep underground, heating up, and rising back to the surface — still flowing today. Over 1 million litres of naturally heated water fills the Baths every single day.

With space for up to 300 guests and a team to support every detail, it’s a venue designed to impress — whatever the occasion.

This isn’t just a place to host an event. It’s an experience your guests will never forget.
